Mazurka for Unaccompanied Euphonium by Falcone - Roger Behrend: Euphonium

Nicholas Falcone composed this work to honor his older brother, Leonard. A little known fact is that Nicholas sponsored Leonard to bring him from Italy to America. A wide dynamic range and fluid melody present unique challenges to the performer. When played with energy, the listener can almost sense the Mazovian dancers' zest for life.
